The host, Jordyn was so very good and full of information. The Amenities were just right. I would recommend anyone to stay here. The screened in huge porch attached to the house was wonderful along with the front porch and pack deck. We loved it because it was surrounded with forest and very private. So very quiet, the birds were so great to hear in the morning. If we had any questions Jordyn was always there to help us out. Had a wonderful time.
The house was well-stocked with linens, kitchen had needed utensils. Home was very clean. Only negative was one of the beds felt and sounded like laying on plastic wrap, which we later found out was the mattress protector. It was very noisy and made the bed very hot (woke up numerous times each night sweating). Overall this home was a great place to stay.

Hi Bethany, we are so please you enjoyed your time at the Apalach Guest House in downtown Apalachicola. We have replaced both queen mattress and also updated the kitchen since your departure. We hope to host you and your family again in Apalach.
We enjoyed this little hideaway will visiting my sister in Apalachicola. It was clean and comfortable with the exception of the mattress pad covers which were a bit noisy when you rolled over in the bed. :) We loved that two of the beds were king size giving plenty of comfortable sleeping space for the adults and the twin beds were perfect for the kids. We spent most of the time at my sister's, and this home was only about a 5 minute drive to her house making it super convenient. It was very quiet and peaceful.
Forest View is a convenient great place to stay if traveling with family and a pet. The long hallway is great for pets fetching toys and burning up some energy. The pet goodie basket was a nice surprise. Spacious living area, clean rooms, comfortable beds, and very welcoming. Only negative was the mosquitos were so bad you couldn’t enjoy the outdoors. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend. A
